Bill 6764\/2002 aims to revoke the National Security Law and replace it with new legislation called the Law for the Defense of the Democratic State.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Civil society organizations have signed a letter against the approval of fast-track status for the bill. The organizations understand the importance of revoking the National Security Law but stress the need for a broad and inclusive debate on the crafting of new legislation.<\/span><\/p>\n

The speaker of the Lower House of Congress, Arthur Lira, has said publicly that he plans to approve fast-track status for the bill in order to speed up the legislative process, skipping the important discussions and assessments that occur in committees.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The letter comes in contrast to the statements made by Arthur Lira. It highlights the moment the country is experiencing, after deaths from the pandemic reached a record of 4,000 per day on April 6, 2020. This is why the letter reinforces the importance of Congress focusing its efforts on combating the pandemic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The document demands public hearings to guarantee a broad debate with society and a meeting between civil society and the sponsor of the bill, Congresswoman Margarete Coelho.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSocial participation and transparency of the legislative process are pillars of democracy. Any attempt to pass a bill whose alleged intent is the Defense of the Democratic State while disrespecting these pillars does not help strengthen democracy,\u201d reads the letter.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
